the blood serotonin levels in ascitic and non ascitic broilers

the blood serotonin levelsin asscitic and non ascitic broilers

the objective of this experiment was comparison blood serotonin levels in ascetic and non ascitic broilers of three strains (ross, arbor acres plus and cobb). to this purpose, a factorial test in crd was applied. in each of these three strains, 12 ascitic and 12 non ascitic broilers were selected. after tagging and blood sampling, all of blood samples were divided in two parts. one part was app...

The Circulation of Ascitic Fluid

After plasma containing labeled plasma protein has been given intraperitoneally to dogs with experimental ascites a steady and rather rapid movement takes place of the labeled protein into the circulating blood. When plasma containing labeled plasma protein has been injected intravenously into the ascitic dog the labeled protein steadily disappears from the circulating blood and appears promptl...

Serum and ascitic fluid serotonin levels and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid urine excretion in the liver of cirrhotic patients with encephalopathy.

PURPOSE The excess and deficit of serotonin can be the cause of somatic and mental disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate serotonin levels in blood and ascitic fluid as well as excretion of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) in urine in patients with hepatic encephalopathy (HE). MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 75 alcoholic cirrhotic patients divided into 3 groups (HE1, HE2,...

Utility of Ascitic Fluid Cholesterol Levels in Alignant

The differential diagnosis of malignant ascites by traditional methods has been recently challenged. We had studied 100 cases of ascites (27 were of malignant ascites) to evaluate the role of ascitic fluid cholesterol levels as a marker in malignancy.100 cases of ascites were studied with regard to SAAG, ascitic fluid cholesterol levels and fluid cytology. FNAC & biopsy was performed wherever m...

Chicken Immunoglobulins in Serum and Ascitic Fluid

Apoptotic neutrophils in ascitic fluid.

A 60-year-old man with known hepatitis C, cirrhosis, and mild hepatosplenomegaly was admitted for ascites. He had pancytopenia with leukocyte count 2.6 3 10/L, mild neutropenia 1.6 3 10/L, macrocytic anemia, and mild thrombocytopenia. Elevated international normalized ratio, low albumin, high bilirubin, and elevated liver enzymes were noted. Therapeutic paracentesis was performed, and ascitic f...
